Unbelievable..

These people get a free ride and have the audacity to boo the US team and dishonor the national anthem?

In Gold Cup final, it's red, white and boo again - latimes.com

Time to clean out the barn.. Arizona is right on the mark!

I think we should give back California to Mexico. They love Mexico so much, let them live there again since, you know, it's a really great country that's better than the U.S.

How can you tell from this article anyone was getting a free ride?

BTW, I live in AZ and it (wish I could say it here).

Heh.

Reminds me of how deliriously joyous conservatives were when the U.S. lost the 2016 Olympics to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Why? Just because the President of the United States supported the U.S. bid, and conservatives were so blinded by their raging hatred of the President that they cheered for Brazil over the United States.

Mexico can't control much of the territory it has now let alone acquire new territory. If the US gives California to any foreign country it would be China. Especially because Mexican corporations don't own anywhere near as much of the state as Chinese corporations and the state and nation are in debt to Chinese banks far more than Mexican banks.

Yeah. They ask for it so let them have it. I don't think I would have even considered paying to see that game knowing what was going to happen.

Shut up. Not every Hispanic is an illegal Mexican immigrant who hates America.

We can allow just so much freedom of choice and when things like this happens it is time to relieve them of that freedom. I will remain in favor of taking all of them who play the game like they played this one, loading them on whatever transportation is available and sending them home. Even those who have been here for years who are still loyal to that other nation should get to feel what we feel toward them acting like this.

Aren't hispanics the majority in greater L.A. these days? From what I understand, the overwhelming majority of the spectators were hispanic, too. Small wonder, then.

Let's face it, this country is changing rather rapidly and CA and AZ are not the only places where Spanish is getting more and more predominant. Try Miami to see what the future looks like...I couldn't even order a pizza in English...
